Dancing with Thunder

And, I tore the sky from the ocean and drown in the silence between.
I covered the sun with a blanket of night and hid the moon under the sand
ย
โฆjust to be with youโฆ
ย
I ripped my heart from my chest and sailed it on a sea of tears
beating frantically it voyaged the long and arduous journey
ย
โฆjust to be with youโฆ
ย
I crushed the stars one by one along the way, stardust falling
the remnants lay sparkling in the evening of your eyes
ย
โฆjust to be with youโฆ
ย
Reaching your shores, I trembled with the thought
of drinking champagne with a sunset;ย
yet I was met with an arid airless dessertโฆ
I had longed to smile in the rain
to dance with your thunder
but the storm was slumbering in eternal sleepโฆ
ย
โฆyou were not thereโฆ

A FANTASTIC piece of poetically romantic effort and loss!!.......with excellent phrasing and lovely imagery you take the reader with you through the hopefulness of Love's promise only to find that the happy ending is not always there.....it is so well crafted that you don't even notice how well the formatting is adding to the totality of its impactful ending......but for me.....it's in those stellar phrasings and images that speak to your uncanny ability to use words with such soft subtlety that makes me want to stand andย applaud your gift ~ I PINNED this CARON!!....because it is an absolutely perfect piece of poetic originality!!ย ????? ~ Bravo!!ย LOVE your style girlfriend!!..keep up the great work!!.....I am your cyber-friend and admirer!!.......T xo ?โดโค
